20 Pros Silent Only by-product is water No moving gparts High power density Low weight Fast start up time Cons Hydrogen is tough to store Expense (platinum electrodes) Very sensitive to CO poisoning Temperature sensitive

21 Regulated 12VDC and 110VAC continuous output 100 watts External automotive-type output; convenient for directly powering 12VDC applications Weight: 50 lbs (23kg) half the weight of batteries providing the same energy Operates O indoors or out Zero GHG emissions 180 amp hours of runtime and offers twice the energy density of deep cycle marine batteries. XRT weighs only 50 pounds, but provides the energy of four 45 Amp-hour batteries that weigh over 100 pounds.

22 ProsP Fuel easy to store as a liquid Much better energy density than hydrogen Wider operating temperature range Cons Not totally silent Has CO2 as a by product Methanol hazardous to health

24 Optional on Westphalia Coaches JAYCO in 2012 The EFOY is connected directly to the battery and activates when battery voltage falls below a set value and deactivates to a standby mode when batter is fully charged.

25 An EFOY Pro 2200 using a 28-litre methanol cartridge can power a 100W device for 13 days Ideally a fuel cell would be used in conjunction with solar

31 Monocrystalline solar panels are made from a large crystal of silicon. These type of solar panels are the most efficient as in absorbing sunlight and converting it into electricity, however they are the most expensive. They do somewhat better in lower light conditions then the other types of solar panels.

32 Polycrystalline Solar Panels are the most common type of solar panels on the market today. They look a lot like shattered glass. They yare slightly less efficient then the monocrystalline solar panels and less expensive to produce. Instead of one large crystal, this type of solar panel consists of multiple amounts of smaller silicon crystals.

33 Amorphous solar panels consist of a thin-like film made from molten silicon that is spread directly across large plates of stainless steel or similar material. These types of solar panels have lower efficiency then the other two types of solar panels, and the cheapest to produce. One advantage of amorphous solar panels over the other two is that they are shadow protected. That means that the solar panel continues to charge while part of the solar panel cells are in a shadow. These work great on boats and other types of transportation.

34 A charge controller, or charge regulator is similar to the voltage regulator in your car. It regulates the voltage and current coming from the solar panels going to the battery. Most "12 volt" panels put out about 16 to 20 volts, so if there is no regulation the batteries will be damaged from overcharging. Most batteries need around 14 to 14.5 volts to get fully charged.
